A detailed view of the external eye to check for dryness

etc. 

An internal examination of your eye to reveal any general health issues including the risk of CATARACT and AMD.

The measurement of intra-ocular pressures with a Tonometer to assess for GLAUCOMA if over 35 years. 

A check of your binocular status, signs of visual stress and stereo acuity.

An assessment of your Field of Vision with a computerised screener.

A Retinal Digital photograph of your retina is taken to check your eye health. (Drops may be instilled during this test to enable this procedure to be done thoroughly).

The Optometrist may recommend that a 3D OCT image be taken at the end of your eye test to assist further health care investigation.

An eye test is usually recommended every 2 years for a healthy adult and between 1 & 2 years for children.
